The P10 well is located offshore, in the Northern part of Rio Del Rey basin southwest Cameroon. Although most prolific coastal Cameroon given production results from several fields southern part, yet it remains very little explored its northern part. This work evaluation petroleum potential Basin using a combination "Quick Look" interpretation logs recorded and "compl...

A stratigraphic section from the Tirgan Formation was selected in Arkan village nearby Bojnourd city in order to study echinoderm fauna systematically. Many specimens of echinoderms, especially toxasteridae which is associated with brachiopods were collected and studied systematically in this paper. Microscopie slides were also prepared and studied. All slides contain benthic foraminifers and c...

Carcinoid syndrome is a rare disorder caused when elevated levels of vasoactive substances secreted by a carcinoid tumor fail to be metabolized by the liver. This can occur for a variety of reasons including metastatic invasion of the organ. Carcinoid syndrome results in elevated levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in the urine. Clinical manifestations include: flushing, diarrhea, bronchospasm...

Japan, 114, 218-230, 8 figs., 2 tables (in Japanese with English abstract), 2008. Cretaceous granitic rocks, consisting of Itoshima granodiorite and Sawara granite, are occurred at upper reach of the Nakaga...

The D’Entrecasteaux Islands of south-eastern Papua New Guinea are active metamorphic core complexes that formed within a region where the plate tectonic regime has transitioned from subduction to rifting. While rapid, post 4 Myr exhumation and cooling of amphibolite and greenschist facies rocks that constitute the footwall of the crustal scale detachment fault system have been previously docume...

A new dataset for the high-pressure to ultrahigh-pressure Western Gneiss Region allows the definition of distinct structural and petrological domains.Much of the study area is an E-dippinghomoclinewith E-plunging lineations that exposes progressively deeper, more strongly deformed, more eclogite-rich structural levels westward. Although eclogites crop out across the WGR, Scandian deformation is...

The Sim-SEQ project coordinated by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) aims at providing a comparative study of different conceptual models with respect to predicting the behavior of CO2 geological storage operations conducted on a reservoir formation, while using the same database for site characterization. The S-3 site has been selected for conducting such a comparative study. Al...

The hydraulic conductivity of aquifers is a key parameter controlling the interactions between resource exploitation activities, such as unconventional gas production and natural groundwater systems. Furthermore, this parameter is often poorly constrained by typical data used for regional groundwater modeling and calibration studies performed as part of impact assessments. In this study, a syst...

We show that inferences of competence based solely on facial appearance predicted the outcomes of U.S. congressional elections better than chance (e.g., 68.8% of the Senate races in 2004) and also were linearly related to the margin of victory. These inferences were specific to competence and occurred within a 1-second exposure to the faces of the candidates. The findings suggest that rapid, un...

Introduction: Ascraeus Mons is one of the three Tharsis Montes shield volcanoes that are aligned along a N40°E trend on the crest of the broad Tharsis Rise. Although largely constructed of volcanic deposits, each of the Tharsis Montes has a distinctive and unusual fan-shaped deposit extending approximately northwest on their western flanks. Three major facies have been identified within the fan...
